|    Gensecpass2 - Ditched Mouse Hooks, Now U    |

      XPost: alt.privacy.anon-server, sci.crypt       From: virebent@tcpreset.invalid              Hey folks,       quick update on gensecpass2.       I removed the mouse entropy collection that was using robotn/gohook because it       kept breaking compilation on Linux with nasty X11 conflicts.       Plus those native dependencies were a nightmare for cross-platform builds.              So I switched to something actually better: two keyboard challenges instead.       Challenge 1 has you type chaotically (just slam random keys fast), while       Challenge 2 captures your typing rhythm with irregular pauses.       Turns out this gives us *better* entropy anyway since we're capturing       nanosecond-precision timing data that's impossible to replicate.              Now it compiles everywhere without fighting with native libraries, and the       security is even stronger because human typing patterns are genuinely       unpredictable. Win-win!              Have fun !              Gabx              --- Digital Signature ---       eo/+fhNUpuGlr/x6B/Pj0KecehIZ3UUZb5Ts4zjQESHyVDYeUHxqWxiDrTqzERY9       4M+ws/Fk+6UfvyseTr9DQ==              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
